Light is everything in your home. The light level in a room affects the way we do our work, and it has a huge effect on how we feel. It is difficult for us to read under a single candle, and a romantic dinner for two isn't so romantic under a 1,500-watt halogen lamp. The issue here is that we need to use some rooms for many different purposes, and these different functions call for varying amounts of light. This is when the light dimmer switch comes into place; a handy electrical component that lets you adjust light levels from nearly dark to fully lit by simply turning a knob or sliding a lever.

How Light Dimmer Switches Work:
Light dimming is based on adjusting the voltage that gets to the lamp to emit only small amount of light. Light dimming has been possible for many decades by using adjustable power resistors and adjustable transformers. Electronics controlling also made possible to make them easily controllable from remote location.
Most homes have lamps or fixtures that can be made brighter or dimmer by rotating or sliding a control on their on-off switch. Years ago, this was done using a device called a rheostat--a large variable resistor. This method wasted electricity and generated a lot of heat. To control the amount of energy going to the light the rheostat had to throw a lot away, turning it into heat. For example, at half brightness a 100-watt bulb would waste about 20 watts to heat in the rheostat. Click here for the whole article on dimmer switches.

Picking the Right Tennis Court Light and Orientation:Many factors go into selecting the right lighting system for your tennis or sport court application. Some of those factors include a uniform distribution of the light and non-glare optics. Good tennis court lighting should illuminate the entire court including approximately 6’ outside the sidelines and approximately 10’ behind the base lines. Metal Halide luminaries are the most common HID source used in tennis court lighting.

There are only a few different types of light bulbs to choose from, and each one is distinctive in terms of the amount of brightness and heat it delivers. But the lighting fixture you use is at least as important as the bulb in shaping the subjective effect the light will have on the area you are illuminating. Recessed lighting fixtures are probably one of the most significant elements of your home lighting design system. There are many different types of recessed lighting fixtures offered by our company. Your decision will depend on several factors, such as how much light you need in each room, how adjustable you want the amount of light to be, and how to best eliminate glare given the dimensions and colors of the room or area you are illuminating.
